Types of Wall Texture
We achieve the desired wall textures by creating patterns with the drywall mixture and textured wall paint. However, there are unlimited ways to make these patterns, and the one you choose is going to depend on your desired aesthetic.

Skip Trowel
This stucco wall texture is a rustic style that aims to look hand-made. In order to achieve it, we throw drywall mixture onto the walls and spread it around with a trowel to leave as many marks as possible.
Stamped
You can achieve a cool bedroom wall texture by using drywall mixture and pressing it down to create certain patterns. We've seen this style being used to create all kinds of wall texture ideas, such as bird's feet, leaves, and even swirls done with a brush.
Knock-down
In order to achieve a California knock-down ceiling, we must follow several steps. Firstly, we spray on the plaster wall texture and allow it to dry. Then, we scrape it and flatten it down again with a ceiling texture roller to create patterns and textures. Some styles, such as the Monterrey Drag, aim to recreate the knock-down texture usually seen in gardens and exterior areas.
However, the knock-down ceiling texture is hard to clean, so you must think it through before using it.
Orange Peel
This wall texture can be as light or as heavy as you like, depending on the type of spray you use to create the effect. It is called orange peel texture due to the small splatter it creates on the walls. If the spraying texture on a ceiling is done correctly, the orange peel ceiling can be one of the smoothest texture styles.
Sand
Sometimes we can add sand to the drywall mixture to create a grainy look. This sheetrock texture is also popular for paints, as many people love the slightly sandy aesthetic.
Acoustic
Acoustic drywall is also called popcorn texture, and it used to be a typical drywall ceiling texture back in the 70s.
Some of the materials used to create this plaster texture had toxins that would harm those who lived in the houses with popcorn walls. Moreover, it accumulates a lot of dust, and it is quite difficult to clean.
Smooth
This modern ceiling texture is one of the most expensive, but it is sure to give you a flawless result. It consists of sanding the wall repeatedly until you can't feel any cracks or bumps and removing texture from ceilings, which is sometimes perfect for installations.
Cost of Wall Texture Service
Our textured ceiling services have highly competitive prices, which is a fantastic deal for any homeowner who wants a wonderful and spotless house. Still, you have to consider some of the following aspects, as they're going to affect the final cost to texture drywall.
- The number of walls that need to be textured
